Okay, that campaign to get "Roll With It" or whatever crap Wasis single to #1 was really bad, but I think this one might be a case of rewriting history I can deal with - getting "Stop" to #1 where it would/should have been had it not been up against Run DMC vs Jason Nevins...

- i think "stop" might be the spice girls best 'un ever so i've certainly got no objection - but aren't all gampaigns like this doomed to failure...? - the awful chris moyles w/the "power" of his all radio 1 show listeners only managed to get billie's honey to the bee to number seventeen or thereabouts

mind you, i gould be biased just cos morrissey fans tried & failed earlier this year w/life is a pigsty, details here:

Moz is always in the singles charts (when he has a rec out anyway), may be the problem there!

I think if that campaign actually succeeded I would have to go and hang myself. Not just because of my intense dislike of the Spice Girls but because of the whole, hideous mockery of everything that is remotely meant to be the point of buying records, in my opinion.

Have to go and buy bird food with mother. However, will elaborate on this comment later.

Don't worry! It won't succeed!

I'm in two minds. Stop is, for me, a great pop song. But it lost out to another great pop song. Sad, but true. I'd have loved for it to have been #1, particularly given the odious "Holler" did, but, well, they did have an awful nice run.
